I thought i had all the basics of C then I got stumped again.....

How do you pass variables between procedures? (Without making a global
variable)

Here's the senario....

int caller()
{
float myvalue;

myvalue=1;
called(myvalue);

}


void called(float passedvalue)
{
.....


}

This is a v. short example. If i debug my code i see that the value to be
passed is right but the "passedvalue" in the second loop is:
any of the following....
        INF(inate)
        x.xxxxE-xx
        ....
        and anything but one!!!

What am i doing wrong?

Pleaase help me!!!
